- When we unpacked freshfishcover.lha by Iljitsch van Beijnum
- <v932524@si.hhs.nl>, we were really disappointed: A nice freshfish
- CDROM cover, but only greyscale...
-
- So we played around with the ilbmtoppm/ppmtoilbm, xv, a
- DECstation and an inkjet color printer. Here is our result. The
- disclaimers of the original artist apply.

- When I unpacked Fred Fish' first monthly CD-ROM this
- morning, I was a little disappointed because the CD box
- looked so naked, you could see the CD inside right through
- the box. I guess Fred left out a cover or titlepage or
- whatever it's called because of the extra costs. Maybe this
- is explained on the CD somewhere, but I don't have a CD-ROM
- player yet so I can't be sure.
-
- Anyway, since it is my opinion that the CD box was "geen
- porum", as we say in Dutch, without a label, I decided to
- make one myself.
-
-
- Because this is a rather timeconsuming process, I am making
- my work available for everyone who thinks it's any good. I
- made a fish similar to the one on the CD and I also used the
- word "freshfish". I suppose that's allright as long as you
- don't use this for anything else than sticking it inside the
- freshfish-CD CD-box.
-
- the cover file is a 1536 by 1536 pixel 16 color bitmap. If
- you print it in 300 dpi in such a way that every pixel
- becomes a seperate dot on the paper the size will be
- correct. This is easily done with DPaint, click on the
- "dots" box in the print window and set dots wide and high to
- 1536. Use the markers in the corners to cut the paper to the
- right size. The cover.small file is intended to be printed
- at 100 dpi. Use this one if you don't have enough memory to
- load the other picture.
-
- If you like it, send me email, if you don't, don't bother.
